Keep in mind that .NET apps aren't considered fully portable due to several issues. We will be adding a .NET apps section to the Portable App Directory shortly and listing .NET apps there along with a portability warning.

This list is updated by agdurrette and other admins. Apps are removed from comments as they are added to the above list.

above I read that the .NET versions of Eraser and KeePass will be named "Eraser Pro" and "KeePass Pro".
Is there a specific reason why they have the ending "Pro" and not ".NET"?
In my eyes "Eraser .NET" and "KeePass .NET" are better than "Eraser Pro" and "KeePass Pro".

I have to agree that a .NET name rather than Pro seems more logical. That way you'd essentially know by the name that it needs .NET to run. All too often, Pro in app names means $$ so it could be confused that way, too. My $.02...

It seems like it would save a lot of support grief if you guys find a way to make it blatantly obvious that users get, install then run dotNETInspector Portable (https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/dotnetinspector-portable) on any machine they're using before they try to use the new .NET apps. Some may not be aware of that handy little tool!

I also renew my concern with naming .NET apps "Pro" due to confusion it might create with users not realizing that .NET is required & that 'Pro" doesn't relate to cost.

It would be great to see this addition to the available graphics utilities, not that we don't have a great choice available to us already. As someone who used Paint.NET extensively in my video projects, it is an invaluable application to have on your system.

Just one note though. Will the version mentioned above be the release version, because Paint.NET has since been updated?

One thing about Paint.Net is it started as a research project by a developer Rick Brewster as a graduate project through Washington State University, and sponsored by Microsoft. Too much info but it's focus has always served as a bleeding edge showcase of the latest .Net features.
Consequently, new versions of the program can end support for older Windows versions if the latest .Net is not available for a Windows version.

you really do a great job here!
I use PortableApps at home, at work and at my friends (when they need some help).
I really miss KeePass .Net and also Eraser .Net

I think now time is ready where .Net Apps can be released.
Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10 have a huge majority and Windows XP is officially no longer supported by Microsoft and is only used by a minority of users.

I know that many people are still using Windows XP where .Net is not installed.
But a huge majority (76.48 has .Net installed and would benefit from Portable .Net Apps.
Why should a small minority (12.21 be the reason that we all don't have Portable .Net Apps?

If you offer .Net apps, then most users benefit from it, they can use it.
And if an Windows XP user starts an Portable .Net App he gets an error message that .Net is required.
So when Windows XP users download and install an Portable .Net App, the PortableApps Platform should show a warning that .Net is required.

Please, John, think about it.
I really think time is ready for Portable .Net Apps.
